Bri­tain’s big­gest rally for vin­tage cars, the Fly­ing Scots­man, will start from Belvoir Cas­tle in Le­ices­ter­shire on Fri­day morn­ing and fin­ish at Gle­nea­gles on Sun­day af­ter­noon.

A ca­pac­ity en­try of 110 pre-war cars from all over the world will con­test the eighth run­ning of the En­durance Rally As­so­ci­a­tion’s event, which is widely re­garded as the lead­ing and most de­mand­ing rally of its type.

The cars and crews will cover nearly 700 miles from Le­ices­ter­shire to Perth and Kin­ross, with spe­cial tests and reg­u­lar­ity tests as well as nav­i­ga­tional sec­tions.
